Everything you would want in Solicitor!
For over a year (maybe even two, time flies!) we have been working with James trying to negotiate a tricky situation with the local authority in relation to the care needs of our child who has complex needs. James and Daisy (paralegal) have been incredible throughout and we are eternally grateful to them for helping us achieve the outcome we were looking for. Thorough, responsive and ready to roll with every punch that was thrown our way. We would not have the current outcome without them. Their professionalism is unmatched but also their empathy and kindness has been a breath of fresh air and made the process that bit easier.
I would highly recommend James and Daisy, the dream team! Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts.

EHCP and specialist school provision
James and Daisy couldn't have been more helpful with supporting us to receive an appropriate school placement in our daughter's EHCP. We were talked through all options, possible outcomes and the costs of each to make a fully informed decision. Having such strong expert support with a great deal of experience made a huge difference to our approach and we would recommend them to other parents in a similar situation.

Placement
James, Laxmi and Daisy worked tirelessly on Patrick’s case and were thoroughly professional at all times. Due to Patrick’s complex profile we had to attend three tribunal before securing his placement.I would recommend, without hesitation,Boyes Turner to any family wishing to pursue the right provision for their young person.

Support for our disabled daughter
We have had a very positive experience with Boyes Turner - we had had many months of difficulties with our daughter's previous care provider, alongside our local authority making decisions about future care that were against her best interests. The advice and interventions from our solicitor at Boyes Turner, James Pantling-Skeet, were invaluable in arranging the transfer of care to a much better care provider that we had identified, rather than the choice of our local authority. Several months on, it is an immense relief that we finally have care provision that is meeting the needs of our daughter.

Placement
James, Laxmi and Daisy, worked so Patrick’s case, due to his very complex profile we had to go through three tribunals. They all worked so hard to secure our son’s placement.
I would most definitely recommend James and Laxmi to anyone wishing to pursue the right provision for their young person.

Excellent Service
Thank you Boyes Turner LLP for your excellent service and support during my recent CHC appeal. It is a daunting process to go through, but your support made it feel less stressful. Your communication and response to emails was great and every step of the process was explained clearly so I was clear on my steps. Thank you in particular to James and Daisy.

Fantastic advice and service
I was recommended James as I was facing difficulties with my local authority adhering to statutory deadlines to secure my sons school placement and issuing his EHCP. We wanted to challenge the LA with their timeframes which resulted in them trying to offer us a school that was not suitable for my son needs. After our initial consultation with James we felt empowered and confident to push back and not give up on what we knew would be best for our son.
After a lot of back and forth we eventually secured the right school for my son and I don’t feel we could have done this without James help and support.
James as well as his secretary Daisy were always quick to respond to my emails and would keep in touch regularly via video calls so we could gather evidence and agree best approaches as things progressed.
I am very pleased we used their services and would not hesitate to use them again if I needed to in the future.

Sen solicitor.
Excellent experience from start to finish. In what was an overwhelming situation trying to get my son into the right education setting, James took all of the stress off my shoulders and won the case against our local council.
My son is now thriving in his new school and I know, without james' hard work, he would not have got there.
